  • Publication number: 20070175201
    Abstract: A power system includes a rotary compressor. The power system may also include one or more power sources drivingly connected to the rotary compressor, the one or more power sources not including a turbine. Additionally, the power system may include a turbine, the turbine being free to rotate independently of the rotary compressor. The power system may also include power-system controls operable to cause the rotary compressor to generate a gas flow by causing the one or more power sources to rotate the rotary compressor. Additionally, the power system may be operable to direct at least a portion of the gas flow generated by the rotary compressor through the turbine to rotate the turbine.

  • Publication number: 20070137211
    Abstract: A turbine system is provided including a plurality of gas turbine engines, each having a compressor section for producing compressed air, a combustor section, and a turbine section yielding hot exhaust gas. A single, common recuperator section is shared by and operatively associated with the plurality of gas turbine engines. A first flow path within the single, common recuperator section is configured to receive compressed air produced by the compressor section of each gas turbine engine. A second flow path, separated from the first flow path and within the single, common recuperator section is configured to receive hot exhaust gases yielded by the turbine section of each gas turbine engine.

  • Publication number: 20070119146
    Abstract: A filter cleaning system is provided for a gas turbine engine including a compressor section and a combustor section. A mechanism is operatively connected to the gas turbine engine and is configured to be driven by the gas turbine engine in a first mode and configured to drive the gas turbine engine in a second mode. A first flow path is for delivering compressed air to the compressor section. At least one air filter is configured to filter air entering the first flow path. A second flow path is for delivering compressed air from the compressor section to the combustor section in the first mode. A third flow path is for delivering compressed air from the compressor section to the at least one air filter during the second mode.
